I have a shelter - tent - similar to an EZ-Up.
To make it stand on concret, I hang cinder blocks from bungi cords,
attached at the welded frame points.
Works like a charm; won't blow away in even heavy winds.
If leaving the tent up overnight, I lower it to its lowest setting -
about three feet.
Just joined this list - referred from SANET. I have 10 acres out in
Loudoun County, VA, farming about 1 (organically) right now; increasing
to 2 next year.
We grow peppers - picked more than 40,000 last year; aiming for 150,000
this year - and make and sell hot sauce as The Chile Man
(www.chileman.com coming soon!).
I've been on this list two days - and already have amassed some great
info! An excellent group -
Robert.
